Eelco Dolstra f19b4abfb2 Include NAR size in fingerprint computation
This is not strictly needed for integrity (since we already include
the NAR hash in the fingerprint) but it helps against endless data
attacks [1]. (However, this will also require
download-from-binary-cache.pl to bail out if it receives more than the
specified number of bytes.)

Jeff Ramnani d53735c823 Nix install script failed when "cd" printed to stdout.
In some cases the bash builtin command "cd" can print the variable $CWD
to stdout.  This caused the install script to fail while copying files
because the source path was wrong.

Fixes #476.

Eelco Dolstra f3a5930488 Sign a subset of the .narinfo
We only need to sign the store path, NAR hash and references (the
"fingerprint"). Everything else is irrelevant to security. For
instance, the compression algorithm or the hash of the compressed NAR
don't matter as long as the contents of the uncompressed NAR are
correct.

(Maybe we should include derivers in the fingerprint, but they're
broken and nobody cares about them. Also, it might be nice in the
future if .narinfos contained signatures from multiple independent
signers. But that's impossible if the deriver is included in the
fingerprint, since everybody will tend to have a different deriver for
the same store path.)

Also renamed the "Signature" field to "Sig" since the format changed
in an incompatible way.

Eelco Dolstra e0def5bc4b Use libsodium instead of OpenSSL for binary cache signing
Sodium's Ed25519 signatures are much shorter than OpenSSL's RSA
signatures. Public keys are also much shorter, so they're now
specified directly in the nix.conf option ‘binary-cache-public-keys’.

The new command ‘nix-store --generate-binary-cache-key’ generates and
prints a public and secret key.

Oliver Dunkl de91a42c6e Moves runHook to a later execution position
It moves runHook to a later position in the rcfile. After that we are
able to set the PS1 environment-variable for a nix-shell environment
e.g.:

  # turn the color of the prompt to blue
  shellHook = ''
    export PS1="\n\[\033[1;34m\][\u@\h:\w]$\[\033[0m\] ";
  '';

Eelco Dolstra 128538ef06 nix-shell: Add --run flag
‘--run’ is like ‘--command’, except that it runs the command in a
non-interactive shell. This is important if you do things like:

  $ nix-shell --command make

Hitting Ctrl-C while make is running drops you into the interactive
Nix shell, which is probably not what you want. So you can now do

  $ nix-shell --run make

instead.

Eelco Dolstra b76589206a nix-shell: Interpret filenames relative to the #!-script
So you can have a script like:

  #! /usr/bin/env nix-shell
  #! nix-shell script.nix -i python

  import prettytable

  x = prettytable.PrettyTable(["Foo", "Bar"])
  for i in range(1, 10): x.add_row([i, i**2])
  print x

with a ‘script.nix’ in the same directory:

  with import <nixpkgs> {};

  runCommand "dummy" { buildInputs = [ python pythonPackages.prettytable ]; } ""

(Of course, in this particular case, using the ‘-p’ flag is more
convenient.)

Eelco Dolstra a957893b26 Allow nix-shell to be used as a #! interpreter
This allows scripts to fetch their own dependencies via nix-shell. For
instance, here is a Haskell script that, when executed, pulls in GHC
and the HTTP package:

  #! /usr/bin/env nix-shell
  #! nix-shell -i runghc -p haskellPackages.ghc haskellPackages.HTTP

  import Network.HTTP

  main = do
    resp <- Network.HTTP.simpleHTTP (getRequest "http://nixos.org/")
    body <- getResponseBody resp
    print (take 100 body)

Or a Perl script that pulls in Perl and some CPAN packages:

  #! /usr/bin/env nix-shell
  #! nix-shell -i perl -p perl perlPackages.HTMLTokeParserSimple perlPackages.LWP

  use HTML::TokeParser::Simple;

  my $p = HTML::TokeParser::Simple->new(url => 'http://nixos.org/');

  while (my $token = $p->get_tag("a")) {
      my $href = $token->get_attr("href");
      print "$href\n" if $href;
  }

Note that the options to nix-shell must be given on a separate line
that starts with the magic string ‘#! nix-shell’. This is because
‘env’ does not allow passing arguments to an interpreter directly.

Apparently, turning on utf8 encoding on stderr changes its flushing
behaviour, causing sendReply to not send anything.
